Gawker, and all of its websites, have been sold to Univision for $135 million, according to reports.

Destroyed by wrestler Hulk Hogan, Gawker was sold off today completely including the Gawker.com website. Gizmodo will join The Onion and other sites recently purchased by Univision as they move more into the digital world.

It seems like that’s the end for Nick Denton and his Gawker world. They were victims of themselves, and victims of a conspiracy by Peter Thiel to do them in.

All that’s left now is Denton’s book, which should be good. And maybe a documentary.
